She could see the startled look in his eyes at her having come closer. She'd expected as much, when she'd been somewhat cold and unwelcoming to him upon her first arrival. She didn't mind the look though, she could hardly care. She just wanted to move closer and if he had a problem with that, then that was really too bad because she wasn't about to stand up and move anywhere else. She liked exactly where she was at the moment. She liked being a little bit closer to him, whether it was because it would be easier for her to provide more assistance or simply because she liked being around him she wasn't sure. It wasn't like it was really of much importance to begin with. And then he chuckled at her response, smiling and playfully winking at her as he allowed her to disregard his thanks if she so wished. She rolled her eyes dramatically, smiling despite herself. Oh I'm not rejecting your thanks Killian. It's always nice to have others appreciate what you do for them. But then the playfulness disappeared, replaced by a serious look as she explained that she didn't know where she'd come from, much less had a family to speak of. He glanced away from her, looking off into the distance, seeming to be lost in his own thoughts for the moment. Did he too have no family? He didn't seem like the kind of guy that had raised himself on his own. His next words strengthened her suspicion of his having a family. She shrugged, shoulders lifting only to sag back. You don't have to be sorry, I don't mind it. Never really needed a family...Why do you say it's better not to have a home? Had something happened to him? She could only wonder as she waited for a reply, audits standing to attention atop her peachy skull. Talk like this |
